Not only are there aliens out there, but they invented games too! The former president of Russian republic of Kalmykia claims that he was abducted by aliens and told him they invented chess."It was not in our Russian space vehicles, but with aliens. They came in a flying saucer, picked me up, and I spent a whole day in outer space.""My theory is that chess comes from space. Because it's the same rules -- 64 squares, black and white, and the same rules in Japan, in China, in Qatar, in Mongolia, in Africa -- the rules are the same. Why? I think maybe it is from space."- Kirsan Ilyumzhinov claims. They spent the day together and then he came to this bizarre conclusion. Now this isn't Ilyumzhinov's first reaction to aliens, this guy used to run around in yellow space suits! He claims that's because of the "Russian Space Projects", but who really knows.

Odd to think that a country would completely ban a product because of emojis. Well this is the case with Russia. with apples new emojis it includes things such has a homosexual couple and a homosexual couple with children. According to Russia minors cannot be exposed to this. Russia placed a ban on apple products and sued them for 1 million rupees in which was about 15,000 dollars. Russia refuses to lift the ban until the payment is made. To apple they paid the ban and then created a new system were the phones sold in Russia does not have that emoji update.
All this hassle over a smiley face.

Back in April of 2013 a group feminist in Germany approached Putin in declaring he was dictator. Putin seemed to have no problem with this, probably because one ran straight up to him naked! Putin was smiling and gave the protester two thumbs up. Seems like the groups protest didn't get their message across to well.
